I could do this, if it was consistent, and if I knew I would have the same seat every day and the train was guaranteed to be on time.
The stress of the commute mainly comes from not knowing how long it's going to take and how different it is every day. If I was able to buy an assigned seat on a train and was able to work (either sending emails or coding) during the commuting time, it could allow me to shorten my time in the office and use that time only for necessary face-to-face meetings.
That'd be awesome, and would presumably let me transition into more full-time remote work.
